A former homosexual lover of sneako is threatening to leak 100 gigabytes of homosexual activity performed by Sneako
The videos include sneako masturbating for men and doing anal play for money
This guy is so confident. He should pledge to shave his head if they win again since that will SURELY never happen....

Dollar General makes $1.5 billion in profits, gives its CEO $8.1 million, spends $700 million on stock buybacks & pays cashiers $8/hour. Over 5,600 Dollar General workers need food stamps & Medicaid paid by U.S. taxpayers.
It robs customers, workers & taxpayers to enrich the 1%.
Very well said, @georgebsocial !
Steam really should have much much lower fee tiers that would benefit most small indies developers.
It would be a rounding error in terms of profit for Valve.
Scale from something like 15% on the low end (or even 10%) then 30% at a million bucks.
Valve already offers the uber high earning developers a lower rate because they want to keep those people happy.
Valve offers nothing for small indies who need a break the most and where every dollar counts and is significant. Again, any fee discount here is an utter rounding error to Valve profits. They would not feel it.
EVEN APPLE offers 15% until you hit $1 million in revenue then the 30% kicks in. Apple!
Before you say "Valve offers you access to their users", like a Muppet, consider that this doesn't concern you (a user) at all. You pay no more and no less for a game. Why do you even have an opinion here?

Alcohol causes the most damage overall. It harms nearly every organ system via toxicity, leading to liver cirrhosis, multiple cancers, heart disease, brain impairment, and high mortality risk even at moderate levels.
Ranking worst to least:
1. Alcohol
2. Cigarette
3. Painkillers
4. Cannabis joint
5. Energy drink
Cigarettes drive cancer, COPD, and CVD through carcinogens and toxins. Painkillers risk liver/kidney damage or overdose (especially opioids). Cannabis mainly affects lungs if smoked with lower lethality. Energy drinks pose mostly mild caffeine/sugar effects.
Many doctors just don't listen to women. It is insane. This poor girl (assuming this is real, nowadays you can never be sure).

Microsoft got $19 billion in tax breaks from Trump.
It pays a lower federal income tax rate than a teacher.
It’s spending $60 billion on stock buybacks.
Its CEO made $90 million last year.
“Corporations will create jobs if they get tax breaks” is a total scam.

EA employees are speaking out about mismanagement, GenAI push and BioWare’s closure🚀
✅Employees report that the "do less, better" mantra has simply resulted in handling the same workload with fewer staff.
✅Upper management is heavily promoting generative AI (specifically Claude), telling staff that adoption is mandatory for the future.
✅Workers believe the technology is being pushed to test how drastically EA can cut headcount while maintaining output.
BioWare’s Decline & Closure
✅BioWare was repeatedly forced to abandon its strengths (narrative choice, consequences, companions) to chase unprofitable live-service and multiplayer trends, wasting significant resources.
✅Studio leadership grew overly reliant on user experience research (UXR) and fear-driven decision-making, stifling creative risk-taking before the studio's closure.

Disappointed, but definitely not surprised. So much of what’s said reflects very much how many of us felt, as it was quite obvious for the last 10-15 years.
Risk-averse development, “do less” mentality, cost-cutting..etc.
I feel really bad for the studios and talents that had to be suffocated under EA’s mentality. It’s obvious what kind of people they were ever since they tried to gaslight gamers into thinking single player gaming to be dead.

It's really sad that the games industry is drained by a 30% tax on gross revenue.
You could vibe code a Steam alternative in a week. Cloudflare egress is basically free.
The industry is in desperate need of a distribution platform that allows developers to keep their revenue.
Networks effects and the fanatic obsession with "muh Steam library" will make this very difficul.
But if devs could actually keep their earnings, we'd have a greater selection of better games and far more financial success stories.

Youtube is coming after CMS channels.
Managed O&O CMS will no more protect you.
Just got hit with GENERIC & REPETITIVE CONTENT.
Even the Partner Manager Could not get the channel Back.
20K USD gone + CMS Penalty for Demonetization.
I used to Post ultra long form History documentaries with complete automation system , 3- 4 videos a day on CMS for 6 Months with no issues at all.
Now they decide to come after CMS channels which used to bypass AI flags.
I present the dumbest motherfucker on Twitter today. He is literally blaming a broken ankle on the person who suffered it.
I don't know, buddy, let's think for a moment why people who are jumping keep their legs under themselves in general, even if they get slammed into by somebody.
Obviously it's because they're planning to land on their feet and absorb the impact the way our entire musculature is designed.
He had no idea he was about to get clipped. Once you're bumped mid-air, you don't get to "choose" a landing. Your body reacts in a fraction of a second.
Do you think that just because he gets bumped mid-air he should try to... I dunno what you think is better... land on his ass and shatter his tailbone? Land on his back and paralyze himself while the back of his head slams against the floor and he is concussed or dies?
Landing on one's feet is the designed behavior for the human body to protect itself from grave, life-threatening injury.
What the fuck else do you think someone should try to land on, you absolute blithering idiot?
Next time you are about to tweet, throw your phone in a fire instead.

Trump: I looked at one hell of a beautiful ass before, Nicki Minaj. That's hard to miss. Stand up.
I just got home from co-hosting am event for Lieutenant Governor @jacquelineforky Coleman who is running for Governor of Kentucky next year. She was a teacher before she ran with Governor @AndyBeshearKY both terms. She's brilliant, tenacious, empathetic, and very cool. She inspires a lot of hope here in KY. I really hope she wins in 2027!

I will cover 100% of your legal costs to fight this, will dm you.
Its so funny how this side always acts like they are above lawfare but will do it for anything that makes them look bad.
@qtcinderella withdraw the DMCA's- I am kinda busy atm!
QTCinderella has been sending out mass false DMCA takedowns to channels, including mine. I have received 10 of these takedowns from clips in 2025. Clipping small segments is absolutely fair use
@qtcinderella is one of the few creators who will try to continually silence others with lawfare, having done this before. If this was a mistake or misidentification, hopefully she can retract it

Hasan Piker: “Trans people are 1% of the population. They shouldn’t be talked about endlessly. Muslims are 1% of the population. They shouldn’t be talked about endlessly. It’s not a Guatemalan migrant that made your housing more expensive. It’s your landlord, it’s hedge funds buying out all of these homes and rising up their prices. A transgender person is not the reason your energy costs are skyrocketing. It’s the wars we’re waging, the data centers sucking up the energy needs. This is just the truth”
